McLean of Inter-Island Says Such
Plan is Contemplated. Kihei Will
Be Port of Call.
James L. McLean, vice-president of
the Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Company, who spent a several days
vacation la3t wool: on Maul, confirmed
the report of the Maul News that the
Inter-Island plans to make provision
for direct shipments of produce from
Kihel to Honolulu at least once a
week, but he further stated that his
company Is planning to revive the
freight service between Maui and Hi
lo, which was taken off several years
ago when the Claudino was put on
the Maul Honolulu run exclufcively.
If this service is resumed, stated
Mr. McLean, it will probably be sim
ply for freight traffic, but Kihei will
be one of the ports of call on the
run. The need of the Kula peop.le for
an outlet for their produce, from the
south side of the Island, and its
prompt handling, was made clear to
the steamship man, who stated that
this had not before been fully appre
ciated by bis company.
With the improvement of the land
ing at McGregor's, Mr. McLean stated
that regular passenger service on the'
south side of the island should be pos
sible at all times regardless of condi
tions at Lahalna.

Some bonohead playing and base
running on the part of Pnschoal's
champions from Puunene was the
cause of their defeat last Sunday af
ternoon at Wailuku Park, when they
crossed bats with tho Pala aggrega
tion. They hit hard but allowed them
selves to be caught out between bags.
In a number of instances.
"Brovnio" Williams, who did the
slab work for tho Puunenes was not
in his usual form and while he sent
ten men to tho bench by the strike
out route, he allowed eight freo pass
es to first Bft. For the Paias, the
Robinson bMUftrs, FJoster and Alvln,
formed tho Sqry.Alvin allowed two
bases on balra 'andstruck out eight,
showing his 'usual form.
Paoa, the crack shortstop of Pala,
was In excellent form and did fine
work. Only a cub In senior baKeball,
he has shown some flno qualities as a
ball player and is bound to make a
mark for himself.
Tomorrow 'the Robinson bunch will
meet George Cununlng's colts at 3 p.
m., and a hard fought game Is ex
pected. There are some who .claim
that Cummlngs had .horse-shoo luck
in the last gamo between these teams,
and that his outfit can be beaten. .On
tho other hand the Hawaii rooters
claim their favorites can whip any
thing In baseball on Maul, and will be
out to cheer tho team along.
Manager Cummlngs is a little un
easy on account of tho fact that his
crack shortstop Rodrigues Is sick and
he will have to depend on his bro
ther "Gink" to cover the opening.
The Paias are said to have been con
siderably strengthened by the acqui
sition of Sam Kaleo as thiru-liaseman.
He returned from Honolulu, where ho
was one of the reliable players of tho
St. Louis team.
As noted at tho head of this col
umn, tho Hawaiis lead, but should
they loso tomorrow they will drop to
second place, and tho Paias will cllryb
up to first, leaving the Puunenes trail
ing tho dust.
Tho attendances in tho past have
been fairly large, and It is expected
that it will increase in numbers.
Thoso who have not attended have
been missing some flno exciting games
and as tho series progresses, better
games are expected.

Maui Guild
Praised At
Convocation
Wailuku and Lahaina Church Wo
men Make Fine Records. Episco
pal Church Shows Healthy Growth
In Islands.
In presenting her report of the work
oftho women of the diocese for the
past year, Mrs. Henry Bond Itesta
rick, wife of the Bishop, announced
that tho Woman's Guild of the" Church
of the Good Shepherd, Wailuku, stood
third among tho fourteen guilds in
tho Islands, In the matter of receipts.
The report as read in connection with
the convocation of tho various Epis
copal churches which met in Hono
lulu last Saturday and continued for
several days this week.
Mrs. Restarick also had occasion to
commend tho activity of the Lahaina
guild. She said.
Lahalna Guild Praised.
"Holy Innocent's, Lahaina, with
twenty-one members, has had twenty
eight meetings. They are certainly
the banner guild for meetings, hav
ing had twice as many as any other,
and their report shows plenty of hard
faithful work and a wonderfully large
total for a place like Lahaina. Too
much cannot bo said in praise of tho
work under Mrs. Bodel and Miss Cald
well in training the children in church
ly ways and principles and work ami
self-denial. The two examples will
sufflce of tho little Chineso boy who
saved every penny given him for New
Year's treats to put into his mite-box
which amounted to $6.40 for missions,
and tho children who sent the price of
one picture show to tho Emergency
Fund.
Wailuku Ranks Well.
"The Guild of the Good Shepherd,
Wailuku, comes third in its annual re
ceipts as I aid before. These are
raised in the usual way by dues, do
nations, Lenten, Self-denial and enter
tainments but with most unusual re
sults for a guild of Its size. It reports
thirty-nine members and frequent
meetings. It has added greatly to tho
funlshings, made extensive repairs
and renovated tho church, besides aid
ing the Vestry in the financial sup
port of the parish. It also contributes
icgularly to tho upkeep of the church
yard. Besides all this it has dono a
goodly share of Auxiliary work and
helped to support two girls at St.
Andrew's Priory and its charities have
reached out to the Belgian sufferers as
well as to tho needy poor in their own
parish.
Most "Successful Gathering.
The Convocation was largely at
tended by ministers and laymen from
all parts of the Islands, and the re
ports all indicated a very healthy con
dition of the church in Hawaii. Tho
various reports submitted showed
much activity among tho different
church organization and a healthy
growth In every department.
The report of tho committee on the
state of tho church showed that ther
aro 1,857 communicants of the church.
This number does not include those
who have been baptized and confirm
ed but thoso who regularly and faith
fully receivo the holy communion In
tho different Episcopal churches In th
Islands. The committee noted tho fact
that there had been a gain of 6.9 per
cent for the past year. Tho total
number of baptlsmls for tho past year
Is 297. Tho apostolic right of con
firmation was administered to 174
persons during tho year. There aro
more than 1600 children In the various
Sunday schools and the different re
ports show that splendid work is being
dono among tho children.
The 115 women attending the cos
ferenco were entertained at luncheon
at the Priory on Tuesday, tho affair
being especially enjoyable.
Wednesday tho Church Club enter
tained the visiting clergy and lay dele
gates with a dinner at the University
Club. On Thursday a reception to the
clergy and delegates was held at tho
bishop's residence from four to six
o'clock.
Among those who attended fnm
Maul were tho Rev. and Mrs. J. C.
Vllllers, and Miss Villiers, of Wailuku
and MIs3 Roberta' Caldwell, of Lahai
na. Mr. Vllllers had charge of the
services at tho opening on Monday
with the celebration of tho holy ocm
munton. Parents Object and
Girl Can't Wed
When Pedro Camachlo, aged 23, and
Mary Pleres, sweet 16 and a trifle over
appeared before Deputy Assesor Ben
Lyons on Thursday and sought tho
necessary permit to wed, they were
confronted by a vigorous telephonic
objection on tho part of the girl's par
ents in Makawao, who for some rea
son do not approve tho match. As
the girl is under 18, a marrlago li
cense cannot bo issued to her without
her parents' consent. Just at pres
ent thcro does not seem to bo much
chanco of getting that. Tho would,
be groom is a Porto Rlcan.
